(december-january)
Hi Hi!
We are a French-Mexican couple, we have a piece of land in the mountains in a community near San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas. We have a cabin with two dogs Nala and Canelo and a cat Balul!
We put a lot of energy and love into this project and we are looking for loving animal beings and careful.
We are looking for a couple of volunteers who agree to stay for a month or 3 weeks in our home while we're out of the city, between the 17 december till 10 january. The mission would be to take care of the animals, caress, give a lot of love to them. Maintain the place (house,mow grass, garden...).
The cabin is made of mud, wood and straw. We have an equipped kitchen, dry bathroom, hot water with solar heater, electricity, internet, drinking water, a room with a double bed.
We live in Santa Rosa, a native community 20 minutes by car from the Merposur market, about 30 families live in the community, within the community there are some small stores where you can get very basic food. Our little piece of land is a little outside the center of the community (200m). There are two colectivos (transport) that go to and from San Cristobal every 30 min, near our place (a 10-minute walk).
San Cristóbal is a magical town that offers many cultural and traditional events, there is a lot of good music. It has some beautiful parks around it.
It is important for us to receive people who share our values. Respect for the environment, for all the beings that live around us and for the planet in general. No type of discrimination is allowed in our home. Love and altruism will save us!!!
If you are interested in rustic life in the mountains, contact us!
We will be requesting to make a video call or meeting us if possible before moving on to the stage living at home and recognizing the place and its inhabitants :)
